The Call That Set It All in Motion

It began with a phone call from a Melbourne-based lawyer. Referred by a trusted business acquaintance, the lawyer reached out to us in a state of frustration. They had been trying to serve a court summons to an elusive member of an Asian triad gang. Despite months of attempts and engaging other process serving companies, the target had managed to avoid service for over six months.

Understanding the sensitivity and urgency of the case, we assured the lawyer that we would approach the matter with the professionalism, discretion, and thoroughness that Code Nine Process Serving is known for.


Piecing Together the Puzzle

The first step was to gather as much information as possible about the individual. Our investigation revealed that the target was far from stationary. He owned two businesses, had multiple residential addresses across Melbourne and New South Wales, and had been a prominent figure in the mainstream media. His criminal connections and strategic mobility added layers of complexity to the task.

The Plan: Strategy Meets Precision

After conducting thorough research, we narrowed down potential locations to his businesses. Surveillance became a critical component of our strategy. Over the course of three (3) days, we monitored his patterns of movement and interactions, identifying a predictable routine that would allow us to make contact.

Our team coordinated a meeting at one of his businesses — a place where he was comfortable and likely to be present. Timing and subtlety were key. We ensured our approach would neither alarm him nor give him an opportunity to endanger the safety of our agents.


Mission Accomplished

On the day of the operation, everything fell into place. As we arrived at the location, we confirmed his presence and approached discreetly. Maintaining a professional demeanor, we executed the service without incident, handing over the court summons directly to him and using hand selected agents who communicated effectively. The job was done — months of evasion had come to an end in a matter of three (3) days.
